Propranolol Treatment for Postoperative Chylothorax
Postoperative chylothorax is a serious complication after open heart surgery for pediatric patients with congenital heart disease (CHD). While it was thought to be mechanical injury to the thoracic duct, recent research demonstrated that there are intrinsically abnormal lung lymphatics in CHD patients, and after open heart surgery, the fluid …
A Single Centre Study Comparing Continuous Interstitial Fluid Lactate Detection to Standard Measurements of Lactate in Patients Undergoing Elective Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery and/or Valve Replacement.
The main goal of this study is to see if a wearable device can reliably track changes in lactate levels in the body. We'll compare the device's readings to standard blood tests to ensure accuracy. If successful, this device could reduce the need for frequent blood tests during surgery recovery, …
Bariatric Surgery for Fertility-Sparing Treatment of Atypical Hyperplasia and Grade 1 Cancer of the Endometrium
A growing population of young women with obesity are developing atypical hyperplasia (pre-cancer) and endometrial cancer. Progestin is the standard treatment for women who wish to preserve fertility, but this approach does not address the underlying cause of endometrial cancer/atypical hyperplasia (obesity); thus response rates are low and recurrence rates …
A Study of Perioperative Oral Nutritional Support for Patients Having Surgery for Colon Cancer, Peri-Nutri
This is a multicenter, unblinded, randomized study. The aim of this study is to research whether preoperative and postoperative oral nutritional supplement (ONS) (Resource 2.5 Compact/fibre compact) used at least 2 weeks prior the surgery and 10 days after surgery can improve the nutritional status of a colon cancer patient …
CARbon Dioxide Flooding to Reduce Postoperative Neurological Injury Following Surgery for Acute Type A Aortic Dissection
Aortic dissection is a life-threatening condition and a consequence of a tear of the innermost of the three aortic layers- the intima. When a tear occurs, blood surges through the tear and causes the flow of blood between the aortic layers, causing a "false lumen". This causes a weakening of …
Secondary Cytoreductive Surgery and Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy (HIPEC) for Recurrent Mucinous Ovarian Cancer (HI-MOC Study)
The primary objective is to estimate overall survival after secondary cytoreductive surgery and HIPEC for women with recurrent primary mucinous ovarian cancer
Multicenter Trial for Eliminating Breast Cancer Surgery or Radiotherapy in Exceptional Responders to Neoadjuvant Systemic Therapy
This clinical trial studies eliminating surgery and how well radiation therapy after systemic therapy works in treating patients with HER2 positive or triple negative breast cancer when image-guided biopsy shows no residual cancer. Patients then receive standard breast radiotherapy.
Chemotherapy With or Without Radiation or Surgery in Treating Participants With Oligometastatic Esophageal or Gastric Cancer
This phase II trial studies how well chemotherapy with or without radiation or surgery works in treating participants with esophageal or gastric cancer that has spread to less than 3 places in the body (oligometastatic). Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as fluorouracil and capecitabine, work in different ways to stop …
Influence of Oxygen on Perioperative Outcome in Patients Undergoing General Anaesthesia for Elective Non-cardiac Surgery
The purpose of this study is to investigate the impact of supraphysiologic oxygen (hyperoxia) on myocardial function in anaesthetized patients undergoing non-cardiac vascular surgery.
Adipose Tissue Storage in the Rapid Remission of Hepatic and Cardiac Metabolic Dysfunction After Bariatric Surgery
The present protocol aims to understand and establish whether there is a causal link between adipose tissue metabolic remodeling and Type 2 Diabetes (T2D) remission after bariatric surgery. All participants will have a bariatric surgery, divided in 2 groups: with or without T2D.
